New Tabs Page

This new tab page opens with a quick launcher of saved Shortcuts with links to Bookmarks, History and the ability to view all Shortcuts. The Admin can customize:

  • The background

  • The Company logo in the top left corner

  • The configured banner color that will be used as the highlighted/active tab color


The Authentic8 copyright message at the bottom will appear even when customized.


Bookmarks

The bookmarks are accessible from the browser toolbar and the browser menu (vertical ellipse). The bookmark page opens in a new tab in the browser.

  • When you click a folder on the left, the contents of that folder display in the right pane

  • The search bar filters the results on the page when at least one character is provided

We have moved the User Profile to the main browser toolbar to enable you to view and update your settings faster. Look at the new User Profile.

Launching Web Apps

Users can edit the shortcuts within the browser window. There are two ways to get to Shortcuts: The Key icon on the Toolbar and a New Tab page.


Shortcuts are ordered based on usage, the ones you use most should be on the first page (if multiple pages) except for the Silo Admin Console that displays first for users that have access to it.
